Project Overview

Project Background

A 9-phase urban and rural road lighting upgrade across multiple Romanian municipalities.

Scaling Smart Lighting Across 9 Project Phases

This comprehensive lighting upgrade project covers urban main roads, community side roads, and pedestrian pathways across Romanian cities. Delivered in 9 consecutive batches, the project has deployed over 18,000 units of CHZ-ST29 series LED street lights with intelligent control systems.

Facing complex road hierarchy, strict EU visual comfort standards, and the need for a unified IoT management system, CHZ provided an end-to-end customized solution - from optical simulation and multi-power fixture matching to DALI smart dimming systems and cloud management platform deployment.

Result: All 9 phases passed acceptance with zero rework required, demonstrating CHZ's mature overseas batch delivery system and reliable engineering quality.

The Challenge

Client Challenges

Romanian municipal road projects require more than a one-size-fits-all fixture - each layer of the system has its own standards.

01

Complex Road Hierarchy

Urban main roads, community side roads, and pedestrian paths each demand different illumination levels and uniformity ratios.

02

Strict EU Visual Standards

European flicker-free and visual comfort standards require DALI / DALI-2 certified drivers and carefully designed optical distributions.

03

Unified IoT Management

Each fixture must be individually addressable, with a single cloud platform managing thousands of luminaires across municipalities.

04

Multi-Protocol Networking

Some areas have stable 4G coverage, others rely on RF - the hardware must support both without field reconfiguration.

05

Energy Saving Mandate

Time-based dimming and holiday-mode strategies are required to meet municipal energy-savings commitments.

06

9-Phase Delivery Risk

Multi-batch delivery demands consistent quality, on-time shipments, and the same commissioning workflow across all phases.

Our Solution

Our Solution

Four-pillar customized smart lighting solution for the Romanian market.

01

Scene-Based Optical Design

Multi-power CHZ-ST29 fixtures matched to road type, with pre-construction optical simulation ensuring each segment meets standards on first installation.

  • 20W - Pedestrian pathways
  • 30W - Community side roads
  • 50W - Urban main roads
  • SMD5050 high-brightness LEDs
02

DALI / DALI-2 Flicker-Free Dimming

All fixtures equipped with dual-protocol DALI drivers for 0-100% stepless smooth dimming - fully EU-compliant for visual health standards.

  • 0-100% stepless dimming
  • Completely flicker-free
  • Time-based energy-saving strategies
  • Holiday mode one-click switching
03

Multi-Protocol IoT Hardware

Layered intelligent control hardware with GPS positioning, covering both dense urban networks and remote unwired locations.

  • LCU-RF single-light controller (GPS)
  • LCU-GSM 4G controller (GPS)
  • FONDA-RTU200Z concentrator (GPS)
  • RF + 4G dual networking options

04

7-Pin Smart Base & FONDA-CITY

Standardized 7-pin intelligent base for easy installation and future expansion, powered by the FONDA-CITY cloud management platform.

  • Plug-and-play LCU installation
  • Web + mobile dual-end management
  • Real-time monitoring & fault alerts
  • Energy statistics & reporting
Why It Matters

Why CHZ Lighting Stands Out

Six core advantages that made this 9-phase project a benchmark success.

01

Pre-Construction Optical Simulation

Multiple rounds of lighting simulation before production - reducing on-site rework and ensuring compliance from day one.

02

9-Phase Batch Delivery Expertise

Proven track record of stable multi-phase delivery - 18,000+ fixtures produced, shipped, and commissioned in batches.

03

EU-Standard DALI Solution

DALI and DALI-2 dual protocol compatibility with flicker-free optical design - fully certified for European road lighting.

04

Dual Communication Protocol

RF wireless and 4G GSM networking options - flexible deployment for both urban and suburban road conditions.

05

Scalable Smart Hardware

Unified 7-pin base - fixtures, controllers, and platform fully compatible for years of expansion and upgrades.

06

End-to-End Service

From optical design > manufacturing > hardware > platform > commissioning > support - one partner for the entire lifecycle.
